I think it's interesting that the whole "Muslims are bad because terrorism!" thing is sort of similar to the whole "Jews are bad because greedy bankers!" thing though I suppose there might have been a lot less of the latter actually happening? Not sure. There are also definitely white, non-Jewish, non-Muslim American/European people in both categories though (greedy bankers and terrorists) who are glossed over when that kind of rhetoric is brought into play!

And if you look at the history of why Jews are bankers, (as I was taught in high school) it was because medieval Christian Europeans weren't supposed to handle money due to religious beliefs so it became a Jewish profession. Now, how true that is, I don't know.

It was more that after the First Crusade that Jews were forbidden to own land or take up the medieval big paying trades of carpentry and stone masonry. If they wanted to do anything other than shovel pigshit for a living then it was banking or nothing.

Well the Jews had only themselves to blame by calling in debts when overdrafts got too large instead of lending more and more and more. /sarcasm
